Prof. Lina Yao is currently a Senior Principal Research Scientist and Science Lead at CSIRO's Data61, and Conjoint Full Professor at UNSW. Prior to that, she is a Scientia Associate Professor and Acting Associate Head of School (Research) in the School of Computer Science and Engineering. She is leading the research groupÌý(D²ÌýLab) founded in 2016. We strive for developing generalizable and explainable data-efficient data mining, machine learning and deep learning algorithms—as well as designing systems and interfaces—to enable novel ways of human-machine interactions, including an improved understanding of challenges such as robustness, trust, explainability and resilience that improve human-autonomy partnership.

Her research area is in Few-Shot Learning, Zero-Shot Learning, Deep Reinforcement Learning, Meta-Learning, Neural Process, Self-supervised Learning, Graph Neural Networks and their applications in a broad range of applications in Recommender Systems, Computer Vision, Brain-Computer Interface, Biomedical Image Analysis, Intelligent Transportation System, and Internet of Things.ÌýShe maintains a strong international research collaboration with world-leading universities such as Stanford University, Tsinghua University, UCSD, TU WienÌýetc. She is serving as Associate Editor for ACM Transactions on Sensor Networks (), Knowledge-based Systems () andÌý. She has over 200 peer-reviewed publications both in international leading conferences and journals including NeurIPS, SIGKDD, WWW, SIGIR, ICDM, CVPR, UbiComp, AAAI, IJCAI etc.
